Introduction
“Discover it
and make
it your world!”
This is the type of work
Mammoet performs in Fort
McMurray (Canada) everyday!
This is a 282 H Liebherr mining
truck, weighing 177 tons, which
was hauled from Aurora to Syncrude
Base Mine. A Kenworth hauled it
with a 19-line Euro-style Scheuerle
trailer. It was transported to the site
traveling only at 30 km per hour.

Mammoet is doing well. That is clearly illustrated in this eighth edition of Mammoet
World. But the world around us is experiencing major and rapid changes. As we
are writing this the stock markets are in the red and economic forecasts are
continuously being adjusted downwards. There is a worldwide economic
crisis which will undoubtedly also affect Mammoet in the end. However, as
explained in this issue of Mammoet World there may also be positive aspects.
Our management team explain why Mammoet has all confidence in the future
and expects our business to do well even in these turbulent times.
“Putting people and safety first” is one of
the corporate values which Mammoet
defined in the past year, and which guides
all our actions. Koos van Tol, Mammoet’s
new Corporate Safety Director, explains
how he wants to give our safety, health,
environment & quality (SHE-Q) policy a
further boost.
In recent years, Mammoet has expanded
significantly, both through acquisitions and
by entering new markets. Mammoet
Salvage, already one of the world’s leading
salvage companies after only three years
in the business, is an excellent example.
Our Salvage Director Fokko Ringersma
explains why both our competitors and our
clients were surprised by Mammoet’s new
A different world
approach to salvage, and what Mammoet
offers as an alternative to the traditional
way of thinking of the salvage industry.
Working at Mammoet means working in a
divers world. Whether you are a crane driver,
a rigging operator, or an engineer, for
instance, we can offer you an environment
where only your talents set the limits to
your development. We communicate that in
our recruitment campaigns with the slogan
“Make it your world!” Mammoet also
presents engineers with challenges they are
unlikely to find elsewhere. Jonathan Hayden
of Mammoet Canada Western explains
what makes his job as engineering
technologist so fascinating and why he is
proud to be working for our company.
And as always, this issue of
Mammoet World includes a selection
of our most challenging and
spectacular projects. The range of
jobs we have completed in the
petrochemical, power generation,
offshore, civil engineering and
marine sectors give a good impression
of the unlimited possibilities,
innovative solutions and attractive
concepts offered by Mammoet.
You may also have noticed that we
have redesigned Mammoet World.
We hope that you will enjoy the new
design and more convenient size
and be inspired by the projects
described here.
